Another Subaru 450?

[Dale512]

Subaru 450 (http://www.buyatvscheap.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=MAS450A&Show=TechSpecs)

Anybody see this thing? Actually looks half decent, dunno about the reliability of the chassis or handling but at least is has a proven engine. The specs are definitely wrong no way it weighs that much and you can clearly see it has a clutch and I'm sure reverse as it's just a de-bored Predator engine. Reminds me of the old 250R plastics and looks to have a fairly narrow front-end.

Weight: 462lbs

Wow:eek2:

if a blaster got knocked up by a 250r and then they installed a 4stroke motor in it, it would look like that bike:devil:

[Dale512]

I would think that the dry weight is a mis-print and yeah the swing-arm don't look to hot, especially where the shock links up

[chevys&honda$]

It looks sweet, but kinda cheesy at the same time:huh I need a test ride.

[hypersnyper6947]

is that the same subaru that makes the wrx??

[Dale512]

Yea, same Subaru. I agree looks good yet goofy at the same time.

Kinda looks like they tryed to make a Lonestar or leager hybrid.. Doesn't the a-arms really remind you of a old t-pin front end on a hybrid lol

[dehner47]

damn.does look like they tried copying a laeger t-pin.and then made it look ugly.

[Rootar]

looks like a POS imo

[hypersnyper6947]

I still would like to take it for a spin though,

It looks like it has +2+2 arms and a -2 swinger, kinda out of proportion, looks like its all shifted forward.

[buck440]

that thing is butt f'ing ugly.........you just got to wonder what people think sometimes

[450raider]

that thing does look kinda sweet, but i bet its a b*tch when you need parts though....

This thing is AWESOME! It comes race ready at 50 1/2 inches wide, has duel rates and nerf bars from the factory, and even comes with a 10 gallon fuel tank so that you can race the entire season + the baja 1000 without re-fueling.

They are a POS... I have ridden one..... Not much good for anything. I think a YZ85 has more grunt than that egine. They are heavy to steer, push like a tractor in the front end and want to roll over every corner unless you are hanging waaayyyy of the thing. Feel horrible to ride and are impossible to ride at any pace. :ermm:
